| June 27, 2007 Jered Weaver will pitch today, regardless of how the results of his strep throat culture come out. "I definitely feel better than I did Monday," said Weaver in the LA Times. "I couldn't swallow anything Monday. Today, I feel a lot more energy." |
| June 26, 2007 Jered Weaver was scratched from his last start due to a bruised shoulder, but it may be another ailment that keeps him from taking the mound Wednesday. Weaver has a sore throat and has to visit a doctor to get checked for strep, according to the LA Times. "It came on real quick," Weaver said. "I felt something toward the end of the game Sunday." If Weaver can't pitch Wednesday, the Angels will put him on the DL retroactive to June 17. He would be eligible to be activated on July 2. |
| June 25, 2007 Jered Weaver tossed a full bullpen session on Sunday. All signs point to him making his next scheduled start on Wednesday, according to the LA Times. He was scratched from his start Friday due to a sore shoulder but appears set to go this week. |
| June 21, 2007 Jered Weaver has been scratched from his start on Friday with discomfort in his right shoulder. "Weaver jolted his shoulder, and [the pain] has subsided in the last few days," manager Mike Scioscia told the LA Times. "There's no better time to do some juggling with [today's] off day and off days [June 28 and July 2]. If guys are fatigued, we can give them a chance to get their second wind." Joe Saunders will start in place of Weaver on Friday. |
| June 12, 2007 Jered Weaver felt better Tuesday after visiting a chiropractor and was expected to make his next scheduled start, according to the AP. Weaver left Sunday's game with tightness in his lower back. |

| April 26, 2007 Jered Weaver threw his regular bullpen session Wednesday and felt confident he has worked out his problems, the AP reports. He's 0-2 with a 9.39 ERA over two starts. "I was looking at some tape, and I saw I was drifting forward a little bit too much, so I was just trying to stay back over the rubber," said Weaver, whose season was delayed because of biceps tendinitis. "Everything went well in the bullpen. I'm just going through a dead-arm stage that I've got to battle through because I started a little bit later, but I felt like the ball was coming out of my hand a little bit stronger today, so we'll see what happens next time." |
| April 17, 2007 Jered Weaver came off the disabled list and was scheduled to start for the Los Angels at Oakland on Tuesday night, according to the AP. He was placed on the 15-day DL on March 31, retroactive to March 23, because of biceps tendinitis. |
| April 13, 2007 Jered Weaver, who has yet to pitch this year due to a bout with biceps tendinitis, will join the Angels today and is expected make his first start of the year on Monday, according to the LA Times.

| April 12, 2007 Jered Weaver threw seven shutout innings for Single-A Rancho Cucamonga yesterday, while striking out seven batters, according to the LA Times. He could return to action as soon as Monday, though he might work one more rehab start instead. |
| April 11, 2007 Jered Weaver might not return to action Monday against Daisuke Matsuzaka and the Red Sox, according to the LA Times. He's slated to test out his sore biceps by tossing 90 pitches for Single-A Rancho Cucamonga this evening. "It will depend on how he feels [today]," said manager Mike Scioscia. "If he can pitch a little deeper into the game and get his pitch count where it needs to be and maintain his velocity, we'll certainly look at [returning Monday]. But there's a chance he could need one more rehab start." |
| April 7, 2007 Mike Scioscia said Jered Weaver's rehab start for Class A Rancho Cucamonga on Friday night went well, despite a pitch count that went slightly higher than expected over four innings, the Angels official site reports. Weaver is recovering from right biceps tendinitis. "He maintained his velocity, and his last 10 pitches were terrific," Scioscia said. "There were signs he's moving in the right direction. Health-wise, he's fine. He'll have one more start, and we'll see where he is." Weaver's last rehab outing, prior to a scheduled start at Boston on April 16, will come April 11 with Rancho Cucamonga. His pitch count in that one has been set at 90. |

His first start for the Angels will probably come on April 16 in Boston. "Weav looked terrific," Mike Scoscia said of the Tuesday outing. |
| March 21, 2007 The Angels have made it official: Jered Weaver will begin the year on the disabled list due to his biceps tendinitis, the Los Angeles Times reports. But if the right-hander continues to progress as he has recently, there's a good chance he'll sit out only one regular-season start. Weaver will throw another 45-pitch simulated game today or Thursday, mixing in breaking pitches for the first time, and he could pitch in a minor league game this weekend. |

I'm taking it a day at a time." |
| March 8, 2007 Jered Weaver returned to workouts on Wednesday after sitting out the day before due to flu-like symptoms, and he's slated to throw off a mound for the first time on Friday, according to the LA Times. He's been slowed this spring by biceps tendinitis, and he's expected to miss at least his first start of the season. |
| March 7, 2007 Jered Weaver is aiming to throw off a mound Friday for the first time this spring, according to the LA Times.

| March 4, 2007 Jered Weaver said the discomfort in his biceps is gone, according to the LA Times. He's aiming to be ready to start on April 6. Weaver's been slowed this spring by tendinitis in his biceps. |
| February 27, 2007 The Angels have advised Jered Weaver, who is dealing with biceps tendinitis, to not rush his recovery and not to feel pressured to be ready by opening day, according to the LA Times. "A lot of guys have a biological clock they see opening day come around and think they have to be ready," Manager Mike Scioscia said. "You have to take that out of a player's mentality, because you want a guy to be on a mound when he's ready. You can't rush it." If Weaver isn't ready for the start of the season, Dustin Moseley, Chris Bootcheck or Hector Carrasco would likely step in as the fifth starter. |
| February 26, 2007 The Angels are hopeful Jered Weaver will be ready by opening day, the AP reports. "There is a date where you'll look in spring training and you'll know if a pitcher physically won't be ready for the start of the season, and maybe shortly after, but we have not approached that yet with Jered," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said Monday. "There's still time." Weaver has been slowed this spring by biceps tendinitis |
| February 26, 2007 Nursing a sore biceps, Jered Weaver likely won't be cleared to throw off a mound until at least next week, according to the LA Times. "He has a little bit of work ahead of him this week," Scioscia said. "But he keeps progressing." |
| February 23, 2007 Jered Weaver threw long toss for the second straight day Thursday, the Los Angeles Times reports. He's being careful with his tight shoulder this spring. |
| February 22, 2007 Jered Weaver was able to test out his tight shoulder by playing long toss from 120 feet for about 10 minutes yesterday, according to the LA Times. "Every time I throw, there's still something there," Weaver said. "It's not pain, it's not discomfort, it's normal. After I get warmed up, it knocks itself out, so it's just a matter of getting loose." He hopes to throw off a mound by the weekend. |
| February 20, 2007 Jered Weaver, who has been limited due to tightness in his shoulder, could throw off a mound as early as next week, according to the LA Times. Manager Mike Scioscia said Weaver would need to make at least four or five exhibition appearances before being ready to open the season. |
| February 17, 2007 Jered Weaver not only said that his tight throwing shoulder will keep him from throwing off a mound for "a couple of weeks," he added that it could bother him the rest of his career. "The way I throw, it's going to be an issue I've had it since high school," Weaver said of the biceps tendinitis that forced him to skip a start last July. "It sticks around for a long time, and it's a matter of knocking it out. With my long mechanics and different arm slot, I put a little more stress on my shoulder." |
| February 16, 2007 While most of the Angels pitchers threw off a mound Thursday or will throw off a mound today, Jered Weaver was relegated to long toss and probably won't pitch off a mound until next week, the Los Angeles Times reports. "He had a long season last year, and it's going to take a little more time to get back to where he needs to be," manager Mike Scioscia said. "We don't want a guy to get on the mound until he's comfortable with his flat-ground work. There's no reason to worry." |
